NBA Power Rankings Week 6: Los Angeles Lakers continue to dominate as the Dallas Mavericks make their move

#3 Los Angeles Clippers - Current Record: 12-5

The Clippers have Paul George and Kawhi Leonard available following injuries

After a lengthy wait, the Los Angeles Clippers finally have Paul George and Kawhi Leonard available, and the superstar duo combined well during their first week together on the court.

With George and Leonard playing prominent roles, the Clippers beat Boston Celtics, Houston Rockets, and New Orleans Pelicans in Week 5, and over the next few weeks, we will get a good look at how good this LA team may be.

#2 Milwaukee Bucks - Current Record: 13-3

The Milwaukee Bucks have lost just one of their last 10 games

The Milwaukee Bucks didn't make the best start to the season, but Saturday's 104-90 win over the Detroit Pistons improved their record to 13-3. Giannis Antetokounmpo is averaging almost 30 points per game, while the supporting cast remains strong despite the loss of Malcolm Brogdon.

Following Monday's game against the Utah Jazz, Milwaukee take on the Atlanta Hawks, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Charlotte Hornets, and should be able to cement their place at the top of the East.

#1 Los Angeles Lakers - Current Record: 14-2

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers possess the NBA's best record

The Los Angeles Lakers have been the standout team of the season so far, and Frank Vogel's men improved to 14-2 following wins over the Hawks, Oklahoma City Thunder (twice), and Memphis Grizzlies.

Saturday's win over Memphis felt huge after the Lakers played badly for long stretches, and while the defense has slipped over the past two weeks, Avery Bradley's impending return will be a big boost.
